That is correct. There is nothing to support the bumper when you install the Curt Hitch item # C15398 on a 2013 Toyota Tundra. That hitch was designed for the trucks without the factory hitch so there's no reason for it to have built in support for the bumper. It'll work on the Tundra's that came with a factory hitch so long as you get everything out of the way including the factory hitch's bumper support.
It is not necessary to support the bumper with an aftermarket hitch like the Curt... view full answer...
You are correct that when the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class I # C11367 is installed, it will move the steel bumper closer to the bumper fascia by the width of the mounting bracket. However, this will not negatively impact or deform the bumper fascia.
If installing the hitch caused problems at the bumper fascia, the manufacturer would state that the hitch requires trimming of the bumper fascia or they would not list the hitch as a fit for the vehicle. The # C11367 requires no trimming... view full answer...
The difference between a 2000 Toyota Tundra with a towable bumper and a non-towable bumper is that the model with the towable bumper will have a cutout in the center of the bumper for a hitch ball wheres the model with the non-towable bumper will not have a cutout in the center of the bumper for a hitch ball.
The trailer hitch receiver I recommend for your Tundra is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13184 because it will fit models both with the towable bumper and models with the... view full answer...
I am unfamiliar with the Barden Bumper and in my research, I could not find any specific information regarding the Barden Bumper. Our trailer hitches are not tested with aftermarket bumpers.
We have two bumpers that have been determined to be a fit for your truck with a factory bumper. The # BWHDRH25122 is for standard and step bumpers and the # BWHDRH25198 is for deep drop bumpers. I recommend measuring from your frame to the bottom of your bumper to know how much distance you will need... view full answer...
The Curt RV Bumper Hitch # C19101 you mentioned is designed to fit 2" x 4" RV bumpers, and will unfortunately not fit your 4" x 4" bumper.
Instead, you're going to want to use the Curt RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # E-100 which will fit your 4" x 4" RV bumper. view full answer...
If the ranch hand bumper is the same thing as a cowboy bumper or deep drop bumper then none of the hitches for the 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 are confirmed to fit because they are not tested on truck models with alternate bumpers. You would have to put the old bumper back on.
If the factory hitch is the one welded to the frame then you would need # C15809 if you did install the factory bumper. This hitch fits below the factory hitch. I have linked instructions and a video showing installation... view full answer...
I would recommend to first check with the manufacturer of the hitch mount deer feeder to see if they recommend an above bumper hitch or a below bumper hitch on the front of your 2004 Jeep Wrangler.
Depending on the style of the deer feeder you have you might need to have clearance from the bumper, so an above bumper hitch might work better for that application.
The installation of the above bumper hitch like Curt Front Hitch, part # 31408, on your 2004 Jeep Wrangler, is listed as a 30... view full answer...
The difference between the two hitches is the size bumper they are designed to fit. The 19100 # E-100 is designed to fit a 4 inch square bumper and the # C19101 on the other hand is designed to fit a 2 inch by 4 inch bumper instead.
Basically you'd need to measure the dimensions of your bumper to know which you would need. Most likely it's a 4 inch square bumper though as that is the most common size. view full answer...
I have a solution for you, but the RV Bumper 2" Trailer Hitch Receiver # S64025 that you referenced can only be used with the hitch opening on top of the bumper.
Instead you would want the Ultra-Fab 2" Motor Home Trailer Hitch # UF35-946401. This hitch can be used with the opening on the bottom of the bumper. Be sure not to exceed the weight capacity of your bumper, check the owners manual of your vehicle for more info on that. view full answer...
As long as you have full access to the underside of the bumper mounting holes, through the step bumper, and they measure 8-3/4 inches center to center then you may be able to mount the Curt bumper mount hitch # E-3S without removing the step bumper.
However, when speaking with my contact at Curt, they mentioned this type of hitch is meant for RV's. He also confirmed that in most cases, the factory bumpers would not fit this hitch.

We do offer one bumper-mount 2-inch hitch receiver intended for use on a pickup truck, Curt Specialty Hitch # E-3S. This hitch is intended for installation on trucks with a step bumper. The hitch you referenced, part # C19101, is meant for use on a 2-inch RV bumper and so would not be suitable.
If your Ram has a step bumper Curt hitch # E-3S will offer you the capacity you need: 500-lbs tongue weight and 5000-lb towing capacity. If you do not have a step bumper you can review the linked... view full answer...

Unless the vehicle manufacturer includes a hitch cut out on all the trim levels of a vehicle, the aftermarket hitches will usually either sit below the rear bumper, or require to trim or notch the rear bumper to allow for hitch installation.
We do not carry any hitches that will fit behind the rear bumper of a 2008 Honda Odyssey. You will be able to see the hitch, but it does not stick out beyond the rear bumper. I have added a link below to the instructions for Draw-Tite part # 75270.... view full answer...
You definitely want to reinstall the bumper beam on your 2023 Tesla Model 3 when installing the hitch that fits:

The hitch does not replace the bumper beam for impact structure so reinstalling it is the safest thing to do. view full answer...
On Reese models, for example, there are usually 2 bumpers. They can be placed in a couple of different positions. They are used to prevent the the head from contacting the hitch body abruptly which could damage it. Some hitches have additional holes so the bumpers can be moved. If your hitch only has one hole and a bumper in it, then it only requires one.
The bumpers are usually located in the rear most holes (towards the back of the truck) since when coupling, the head is tilted forward. view full answer...

A deep drop bumper is a bumper that hangs further below the frame than a standard bumper. Check out the photo that I attached showing a deep drop bumper compared to a standard bumper and a step bumper.

I spoke with my contact at Curt about this and here was his response:
All of our hitches are tested to SAE J684 standards. Hitch # C14009 is not an OEM style hitch, thus it does not use the truck bumper for support. The OEM hitch uses the bumper to support the hitch. The hitch does not support the bumper. view full answer...
